I use a metal two door storage cabinet I got at a yard sale (less than 20$), you know, the ones that stand about 7' tall and abut 3' wide with shelves. Anyway, I bag, box or wrap my restored parts and put them in there for safe keeping. It keeps them out of the dust and I know where to look for parts when ready...that ALL that is in the cabinet, nothing else.
With your bins, I'd make a simple label on painters tape and stick it on the outside of the bin with the part name for everything I put into that bin...makes it easy to find that part later. Make a separate label for every part, that way when you remove the part you remove the tape label and you are always current with what's in the bin.
